Page 5 - Remember The Sabbath Day

So, because of the future “rest” (katapausin) – the Kingdom of God – spiritual Israel is to enter, there remains for them a sabbatismos – the keeping of the Sabbath day. This means that Christians will enter the future “rest” of God’s Kingdom even as they now keep the weekly seventh-day Sabbath, which looks forward to it!
13). What further encouragement are Christians given about entering God’s eternal “rest”? Heb 4:10-11. Where may they go for the help needed to obey God? Verse 14-16.
God’s seventh-day Sabbath is not to be treated lightly or forgotten, for the Sabbath is both a memorial and a shadow. It is a memorial of creation and a foreshadow of the coming eternal “rest” that Spirit-begotten Christians will enter when born into God’s eternal Family.
14). Did God command the entire nation of Israel to assemble (“convoke”) on the Sabbath? Lev 23:3; Num 28:25. [Num 28:25 does not refer to a Sabbath day in the sense of this article. This scripture refers to the 7th day of Unleavened Bread.] What are New Testament Christians admonished regarding the assembling of themselves? Heb 10:25-26.
As early New Testament Christians assembled together on the Sabbath day, likewise God’s Church in this age assembles for worship services on God’s holy Sabbath. Every Sabbath, God’s people meet to receive spiritual instruction and inspiration from the Word of God as expounded by the ministry of His Church (Eph 4:11-13).
